deleting traces of a past company
12/18/03 at 12:13:52

Using Evo with latest update.

Occasionally, I create test companies that I copy from our live data to play with new features. I deleted one of these companies, but now I occasionally get error messages in Evo. For example, when I try to change companies, I get the message "Cannot open the BKSYMSTR file for company B98." And then it functions okay. The company code does not appear in Create/Delete Company and I have recreated the DDF files several times. There must be traces of this company code somewhere. Does anyone know where to look?

Thanks,
Sean

You will also need to do this when creating a new company - create it using the old TAS 5 DBA menu, then reinstall the downloaded files and rebuild the TAS 6 dictionary.

Tried this today as I was getting the system ready for the new year. But when I get to running TAS6EVO from the server, I have the following problem. The license screen comes up fine, then I get the following error: "A record was not found in FILELOC for file BKSYMSTR.B -2. The must be a record for each file opened." I then get a file open error for BKSYMSTR and Evo does not start. Does anyone know what I should try now?

Thanks,
Sean

Had to modify the taspro6.ini to call WTASCVTDICT.RWN instead of DBAMENU_FLEX.RWN. Utility ran fine. Switched tas6pro.ini back and we're up and running with Evo again. Thanks, Sean
